Why I Chose MIT:

“I chose MIT because it offers the ideal environment to continue my academic pursuits while also fostering my passion for volleyball. The university’s infinite array of clubs, research programs, on-campus activities, and much more provides me with endless possibilities. What truly sold me, though, was the supportive atmosphere provided by the coaches and teammates, who are dedicated to achieving excellence. It made me certain that MIT would become my new home.”
